A final, vibrant day in Trinidad




It´s pre-carnival time in Port of Spain. Which means the carnival has already started. Prominent steel pan bands compete for the publics attention around Queens Park Savannah (the field and former plantation that is also recorded in Guinness Book of Records as the worlds biggest roundabout). After returning from low key Tobago today we walked around listening to the massive and almost hypnotic sounds of the bands that swayed the warm evening air with walls of sound. As dusk approached we walked back to our final hotel night in the Carribbean with the music fading towards the skies above the Savannah.
It was a fine, soft day. But a day in which we, more than ever, were burdoned of the news and knowledge about the terrible situation in Kenya, the land of Emilys family. Our thoughts are with you.
